R. (11-year-old,pregnant in 7th month now) lives with me for 2 months already,after her father had abused her sexually(for more info,read my other question).Her belly is getting really big and she is very scared of the time when the labor will come.She's 11 and the delivery will definitely be a torture for her but how can I tell her that?What can I tell her to comfort her?She already has great difficulties moving and I have to help her,she sometimes has painless contractions(the ones every pregnant woman has during the last 3 months).I'm 22 and I don't have children and look at R. as she is my daughter.How can I help her not to be scared and what can I tell her?The delivery is going to torture her so much,she can die and I know it,but what can I tell her?I'm scared about her either and I love her very much!
P.S. she can't have Caeserean birth(I won't explain why but she just can't)
